The Election in the Congressional Dis*
i tricts—Facts and Figures.
St. Maby’s, Ga., Sept. 14, 1874.
Editor Morning Mews:
Two much importance cannot be at
tached to the elections in Georgia, and
in fact, in all the States this year, as
questions of tho greatest importance af
fecting tho rights 'and liberties of the
whole people will arise daring the term
for which our Congressmen are to serve.
It is impossible to foretell what revo
lutions in parties may take place, hence
the importance of having able and trust
worthy men, fully identified with the in
terests of the tax payers and entire peo
ple, to represent us, men who will be
found on the right side at the right time.
It is impossible for oar people to ex
hibit too much zeal with a view of mak
ing the canvass a signal success. The
three Radicals who now represent us in
Congress from this State , were seated on
small majorities, Sloan and Whitely on
less than one hundred each.
A little greater effort on the port of the
Democracy, more self-denial and sacrifice
of time and personal ambition for the
public good, will certainly crown onr
efforts with- a sublime success over the
men and party seeking onr ruin.
It may not be generally known, but it
is nevertheless an important fact, that
the last Legislature of Georgia made a
wise change in the election law, which,
if properly executed, must bring dismay
and discomfort on the horde of illegal
—— irs who have heretofore enjoyed the
ry of stuffing our ballot-boxes. Let
managers look into the law and exe-
't impartially, and tho result will be
lying to the lovers of good govem-
some counties in the State the Rad-
alone, not counting the Democratic
>olleii more votes than the whole
r of tax payers in said counties.
l view to correct this great evil of
voting the Legislature took wise
o contest before Congress between
iwls and Sloan, the debates on the sub
ject in the Globe developed the fact that
Sloan was seated by a majority vote of
sixty-ono after allowing all the votes
cast, legal and illegal, for each candidate.
Tho official vote was, Sloan G,979, Rawls
8,319. But the committee of Congress
allowed Sloan 8,5-13, and Rawls 8,482,
making the whole vote of the district 17,-
025. There are at least 20,000 votes in
the district, and while our prospects may
seem bright and beautiful at present, it
would be wise on our part to anticipate a
larger Radical votes than Sloan received,
and to make every possible effort to over
come it by seeing that every Democrat
and liberal Republican vote on the day
of election, for Mr. Hartridge will get
many colored and quite a number of
white Republican voters if we but do our
duty in the canvass.
It is reasonable to suppose that the ex
citement incident to the civil rights bill
will tend greatly to harmonize the Radi
cal candidates and the party and bring
out an unusually large vote. We should
prepare for it at least, and if we should
be agreeably disappointed in the end
nothing will be lost for our efforts.
Let every man commence to work at
once as we are doing in Camden. Let
the party see that baggies, carts and
wagons are sent aft* cripples and poor
men who have no means of getting to the
election. Let liberality supplant and
overcome every selfish instinct, and let
election day be a day of work long to be
remembered in the annals of Georgia.
Then victory will smile through the dark
ened cloud Imd crown onr efforts with
the blessings of the joys which a triumph
of right over wrong can give.
Even the ladies of Georgia might well
inspire their husbands, fathers, brothers
and friends to come even from tho re
motest corners and vote for the re-estab
lishment of constitutional liberty in this
country. She who was last at the cross
and first at the tomb feels more keenly
the results of bad government than man,
who often forgets Ris wrongs while mov
ing in the ordinary business excitements
of the day.

Twenty Thousand Dollar*’ Worth of Coal
Land Mold for a Sang.
[From the St. Charles Cosmos.]
One of St. Charles’ enterprising citi
zens, who for slowness of mental'evolu
tion we would fain believe came over with
Moses the Conqueror, and who, when
Joshua, the son of Nnn, commanded the
sun to stand still npon Gibeon, and the
moon in the valley of Ajalon, mistook the
command as a personal direction, and has
been standing still ever since, holding to
the creed that the telegraph is an inven
tion of the devil, and the press likewise
an engine of his sulphuric majesty, and
who, for fear of being held in any degree
responsible for these Satanic revelations,
always advertises with a written “notis”
stuck on bam doors in the back alleys,
where he who runs may read, and whose
conversational stock in trade consists in
personal reminiscences of those* who “fit
into the war of *12” was last week brought
forward several thousand years with such
velocity that the’eentrifugal whirl brush
ed all of the cobwebs from his brain. He
never read the papers, but he does now—
and it happened in this way:
About twenty years ago he entered two
sections of land in adjoining counties in
Illinois, only a few miles distant from the
river. He has been paying taxes on it
ever since, and for the past five years has
been very desirous of selling, but. con
cealing the desire from the public by re
ligiously avoiding the newspapers, nover
found a purchaser until a few days ago.
He came along in the person of a ver
dant (?) importation from the press-rid
den East. He was “considerin’a notion
to settle down to farmin’,” but as land
was too high abont St. Charles, he
“guessed he’d go up to Iowa, where he’d
heard good farmin’land could be bought
for $5 per acre.”
Our antediluvian friend saw his oppor
tunity, and made ready to take this stran
ger in. He told him of his two tracts in
Blinois, gave his price and numbers, and
our would-be settler started to see it (?)
He came back in a day or two and said
be liked one piece pretty well, but the
other one was too far away from a set
tlement. He would give four dollars an
acre for the one or seven dollars for tl e
other; but be wanted the most desirable
piece. Our citizen “calculated” he would
keep this piece, but . he would let
the other go for five dollars an acre,
cash. The stranger, after some higgling,
finally agreed to take it, got his deed, and
went on his way. Our citizen locked up
his currency in an old stocking—for he
was afraid of our banks—and chuckled to
think how he had sold his wild land, got a
pretty good interest on the cost—and no
thanks to any real estate agency or
newspaper advertisement. He would*not
fee a newspaper or read one. It was
money and time icuss than thrown nwaj\
In a day or two he thought he would
write to the recorder over there and see
what his remaining piece was worth. He
did so, and also gave a description of the
piece he had sold. The answer came—
the piece remaining was worth about $4
an acre. The piece he had sold was
within a mile of a station on the Tamaroa
railroad. The railroad ran through a
corner of it. It wasn’t very good farm
ing land—there was too much coal in it—
and a party of Eastern men were there
preparing to sink a shaft. The recorder
thought it was worth at least $20,000,
and if these miners were going on with
out authority he had better look into it,
adding a postscript that his deed to one
of the tracts had just been brought in for
record.
How Chinamen Recommend Foumeb
Employees.—When a Chinese servant is
discharged from a family, and about to
leave, he places his mark on the wall of
the room he has occupied or in some part
of the premises where the next coming
servant will see it. Whatever differences
may have existed between employer and
employe, whatever disagreeable things,
true or imagined, that it is possible to
say against the people of the house, are
duly recorded in a few cabalistic signs,
aud a housekeeper not posted will have a
chance to wonder at some things seen in
a new servant. A San Francisco paper
telis of a family in that city which had a
continual coming and going of Chinese
servants. They treated the help well,
the work was light, and the pay liberal,
but no servant could be induced to make
a reasonable stay in tho house. At last
it was found that a refractory man, who
had been discharged, had left on the wall
certain uncomplimentary remarks con
cerning the family, and statements that
could not bo verified by facts. The
writing was at once obliterated, and no
farther trouble was experienced.
The Negbo Exodus.—Dr. Winkler, of
Georgia, a very thoughtful writer, sees in
the tendency of the negroes to emigrate
toward the tropics the solution of the
negro problem. Migration from Alabama
is so great that within two years it has
changed the political majority in that
State, and since 1S70 added more than a
hundred thousand to the population of
Texas. The advancing column already
reaches to the Mexican frontier. Dr.
Winkler would encourage this course of
events. It would diminish the supply of
labor in many States, but would leave
them free to receive a tide of beneficent
immigration from Europe and other parts
of the country. He says -. “ The mighty
gathering procession of blacks is moving
onward toward Mexico. There they may
rest amid such conditions of climate, soil
and company as suit their constitution,
their habits and their instincts.” But
although this may at lost be the final his
torical result, it can only take place effec
tually in the very remote future. The
remedy will be too late for the present
generation.”
An Aristocratic Foundling.—The fe
male infant found by police officer Jacob
Baker in a basket on the door-steps of a
house on Saratoga street, Wednesday
night, was yesterday sent by Sergeant
Gladson to St. Vincent’s Infant Asylum.
A note, written in a handwriting that was
almost undistingnishable, was found in
the basket addressed to the proprietor of
the house where the baby was left, and
read as follows: “Dear Friend: I ask you
to take care of my baby for me, as I am
known in your family and I cannot keep
the child because ma does not know that
I have got it: but you will never regret it
if you keep it, as I and the father of the
child are well known, aud we will pay
you for your trouble and send it clothes,
and if you do not want it please give it a
home where I can get it again, and if
not, put it away safe. It is one month
old to-day. Do not think it is poor by
its clothing. It is of an aristocratic fam
ily. Yours, respectably, Miss axd Mbs.”

Farming in California.—A farm in
California, consisting of 20,000 acres, has
just been let for five years, at ah annual
rental of $40,000. The farm is stocked
with 1,900 head of cattle, 100 horses, 50
mules and 1,500 hogs, costing the lessee,
with crops, the stim of $74,250. Heavy
fanning that. But oot there they have
sheep ranges of 100,000 acres, with flocks
Serial from 00,000 to 100,000 head
while there are fanners who boast of
wheat crops amounting- to _o0,000 and
120,000 bnshels. Cattle raising, once a
prominent interest, is going down. The
vineyard and dairy interests are con
tinually growing, both being conducted
on the very extensive scale which appear
to characterize the farming operations in
that region. The receipts of wheat at
Stockton on one day recently amounted to
1,495 tons.

Babies.
The Kalamazoo (Michigan) Agricultural
Society, having arranged for a baby show
at their forthcoming fair, appointed Gov
ernor Bagley one of the committee. Hav
ing advised the Governor of the honor
conferred npon him^ the genial Chief
Magistrate responds as follows:
State of Michigan, )
Executive Depatment, -
Detroit, August 8, 1874. )
Frank Little, Secretary:
Dear Sir: Your favor of the 27th, noti
fying me of my appointment as one of a
“Committee on Babies” at your coming
county fair, is at hand. The position is
certainly a delicate, and to a man in pub
lic life, a dangerous one. Suppose, for
instance, I was a candidate for office,
would not every father, whofce baby failed
to receive a premium, vote square against
me? Would not every mother, whose
baby bos failed to receive the attention
of the committee, use her powers of per
suasion in inducing her neighbors to vote
for the “other man?” Providence has
very kindly implanted in the heart.of
every crow a deluded belief that its “baby
crow” is the blackest of all crows, and no
argument of counsel could ever convince
the mother crow to the contrary—and
this is right. Were it otherwise, our
babyhood would not be the reign of king-
hood and queenhood that it is.
If onr parents had not believed ns to
have been the brightest and best of the
human family, and that we were bom to
be Presidents, or at least Congressmen,
we should have been drowned like kittens
before we had reached onr teens. But
were I to undertake the duty you request
of me, other objections loom up before
me. I do not know the opinions of my
fellow-members of the committee upon
“ babies.” I should want to know what
sort of babies they have had if they have
had any. I want to know whether they
like fat babies or lean babies, whether
blue-eyed or black-eyed, gray eyed or
hazel-eyed, boys or girls, blondes or bru
nettes. Above all, I should like to hnow
whether they like babies at alL I do not
suppose for a moment yonr society would
have been so careless as to select a com
mittee, any member of which did not
like babies, yet you may have done so. If
by accident you have, then you have
spoiled the job. I couldn't serve with
any such person. Their judgment
wouldn’t be worth a straw.
Again, I want to know if there is any
member of the committee who never
owned a baby of his own. I should most
certainly object to serving with any such
unfortunate individual. What would he
know about bab'e;? How much weight
would his opinion have on the important
question of which was the “ finest and
handsomest baby not exceeding eighteen
months of age?” A decision made by
such a one would be laughbd at by every
mother in Michigan. I have seven babies
of my own. Some of them are too old
to be called babies by the outside world,
but to me they are and ever will be ba
bies. Now, I try to be fair and decently
honest in my judgment of men and
things, but when it comes to babies, I
can’t do it; I know I can’t; I shall be
making comparisons constantly, keeping
my own babies before me as a standard
of excellence. It is of no use. I can’t
serve, and do my duty to myself, my
wife, my babies, my State, my neighbors,
and my prolific fellow-citizens of Kala
mazoo county. Your friend,
John J. Bagley.
Abont two months ago the Virginia
City Enterprise, of Nevada, a journal
that so ingeniously mingles fact with fic
tion that its readers are never weary of
exclaiming, “Well, I wonder!” related
the incidents connected with the demise
of Mr. Jonathan Newhouse, who froze to
death, appropriately, it would seem, in
Death Valley, Nevada, while journeying
in a strange device, an invention of his
own, composed of a sponge jacket which
was kept saturated with water fjyyn an
india-rubber pouch pressed through a
gutta-peicha tube. This jacket Mr. New
house intended as a solace from the heat
of the sun, as, according to the Virginia
Enterprise, the moistened sponge would
produce an agreeable coolness. How
ever, as it happened, the coolness devel
oped into frigidity, and finally Mr. Jona
than Newhouse was found frozen stiff
under the burning sun, with a large icicle
depending from his nose. The story
reached England, and the Daily Tele
graph, of London, detailed it in its col
umns, but accorded it only a churlish be
lief.
The Virginia Enterprise of a recent date
copies the 1'elegraph’s article, affirms the
truth of its story, and offers in evidence
a letter from one David Baxter, a justice
of the peace, who says he held an inquest
on tho body, and that the jury found in
their verdict that Newhouse “came to his
death” in consequence cf his having been
“frozen in a sort of coat of sponge,
called a ‘solar armor,’ of which he was
the inventor, and in which he was tightly
laced at his own request, said ‘solar
armor’ being moistened with some
f rigorofic mixture, with the precise nature
of which wo are unacquainted.” The
Enterprise fortifies its case with several
important details from Mr. Baxter’s let
ter; and the component parts of the
“frigorofic mixture” hinted nt may be
surmised from the fact that in Mr. New-
house’s carpet-bag’ were found several
small glass jars labelled “ Ammonic
nitrate,” “Sodic nitrate,” “Ammonic
chloride,” “Sodic sulphate,” and “Sodic

A Suicide in the New York Tombs.—
Julius L. Mendelssohn, held on a charge
of forgeiy, who committed suicide on
Saturday at the New York Tombs, claims
to be the only son of the great composer,
Felix Mendelssohn: In the letter found
in his cell he shows himself to be a man
of good education, possessing a thorough
knowledge of at least twelve languages.
He has mixed with a number of the po
tentates of Europe, and has successfully
carried through his position as a man-
supposed to control plenty of money.
He was a professor of analytical chem
istry, and had an office in New York.
His counsel says that he came to New
York from Yokohama, Japan, bringing
a large quantity of opium, which he
(Mendelssohn) stated on his trial he sold
to a man named Max Stadley for $10,000,
and the latter gave him in return checks
which he was accused of having forged.
This Stadley is a myth, as ho one can
find any such person.
Inquiries instituted in Germany seem to
indicate that Mendelssohn was a name as
sumed by the suicide, and that his real
name was Julius Lisser. In a letter to
the Slants' Zeiiung, he states that he
loved life, but could bear it no longer.
He had lived unhappily with his wife for
the past eight years; was a son of the
great composer, Felix Mendelssohn; had
been* traveling in China and Japan for a
number of years, and came to New York
on his way to Europe. He added that he
had fallen in with swindlers and hum
bugs. He also said that he had given
two friends over half a million of dollars
in United States bonds for his children,
but could never afterwards find them.
He directed his body to be sent to one of
the medical colleges to serve tho purposes
of science.

“Eternity”—Singular Freafc of a Re
ligions Fanatic.
The curb and flagstones throughout the
city have frequently been utilized by
enterprising bill posters during the hours
of night to direct the public’s attention
to some patent nostrum; but for the first
time in the history of Baltimore, on Sat
urday last, tho same medium was availed
of to remind the passers by of the neces
sity of condidering their spiritual condi
tion. The text was the same everjwhere
—“Eternity”—which on Saturday morn
ing was read by many thousands of per
sons in various sections cf the city, caus
ing some to reflect, others to meditate,
and inducing, it is believed, not a few to
visit one or other of the various churches
yesterday. In the centre and western
sections of the city, extending from the
bridge along Baltimore and other streets
almost to the western city limits, and
thence on parallel streets and some of
those intersecting them, the word “Eter
nity” was found written in a bold, legible
band, in chalk, on the broad smooth
flags. Numerous inquiries were made os
to who the mysterious writer was; some
regarding it as the work of a wag, and n
few superstitious persons considered it
almost as ominous as the “handwriting
on the wall.
An examination «f the inscriptions at
various comers of streets showed that
the work hod been done systematically
and carefully. The writer is enabled to
solve the mystery. Passing along Balti
more street about half past two o’clock
on Saturday morning his attention was
attracted to some lettering in chalk on a
flag-stone near Republican street, and
npon examining it with the aid of the
glimmer of a neighboring lamp, he read
the single word “Eternity” traced care
fully. At the next comer the same mys
terious inscription was encountered, there
being striking uniformity in the writing,
as though executed with a practiced hand.
Some other belated pedestrians were ob
served to stop, and after reading the in
scription, rendered more solemn by being
encountered in the midnight hour, ex
pressed their* surprise and burned away
only to have their attention arrested at
the next comer. Taming northward,
along Carey street, and thence westward
on Fayett6 to Calhoun, the writer ob
served the figure of a man in a stonriinu
posture, who, rising suddenly, pu.--.-d
him at a brisk walk. Observing in bis
right hand a piece of chalk, and that his
dress was also soiled with chalk-marks,
the writer stopped him, and after satisfy
ing himself that the nocturnal traveler
and the mysterious inscriber of flag-stones
were one and the same person, asked for
an explanation of his eccentric conduct.
A long convers rtion ensued, during
which the stranger said that he was only
Obeying the directions from his Father in
Heaven in thus attempting to arrest the
attention of the public and remind them
of their duty. He was a member of no
particular denomination, but bad implicit
faith iu the promise held out to sinners
in the Word of God, and had memorized
many of its striking passages, which he
quoted in the coarse of his remarks. He
was, he said, a native of New Orleans,
where his father, an unbeliever, was liv
ing, and that his name was Chap. J. Led-
dy. He had just arrived on the late train
from Philadelphia, where he had covered
the flag-stones with “ Eternity,” and had
then, he estimated, marked up at least
one thousand in Baltimore. He did not
know how long he would remain, and
said he preferred to write tho subscrip
tions at night, believing they were more
effective when first seen in the morning.
He was about 30 years of age, and dress
ed plainly, while in conversation he was
intelligent, with good address and a ten
dency to bo melancholy. After some con-
veraation be remarked that “ time was
precious ” and hurried away to the next
corner, where he wrote “ Eternity ” in
large letters and disappeared in the gloom
of night.—Baltimore Gazette.
A Voice from the Grave.—Some few
days ago we published a letter from Judge
J. L. T. Sneed, of the Supreme Bench,
to Judge Jo. C. Guild, in favor of remov
ing the remains of General and Mrs. Jack-
son from the Hermitage - to the Capitol
grounds. Judge Sneed urged this propo
sition with such patriotic zeal that we in
dorsed it at first blnsh, as the most ap-
propria'e mark of respect that Tennessee
could pay to the memory of her illustri
ous hero. In to-day’s Union and Ameri
can a distinguished citizen,rwjio conceals
his identity under the nom de plume of
“ Red Oak,” enters a solemn protest
against disturbing the sacred ashes of the
'dead, but even he has not touched upon
the real merits of the case. In the spring
of 1850, a bill, offered for the very pur
pose, suggested by Judge Sneed, would
probably have boen passed by the Gen
eral Assembly but for one objection
which was then, and should be now,
deemed insuperable.
While the bill was pending, a letter
from Andrew Jackson, Jr., to Governor
Harris, was submitted, iu which he said:
“I write you, sir, for the purpose of ex
pressing the dying sentiments of my ven
erated father to me and Mrs. Jackson,
just before bis decease, as I perceive that
a movemont has been made in the Legis
lature to have his and Mrs. Jackson’s re
mains removed to the State Capitol
grounds. He called me and my wife up
to his bedside and said: ‘My son and
daughter, it may become necessary for
you to dispose of the Hermitage and
grounds hereafter; but I beg of you to let
my remains and those of my dear wife
remain together at the Hermitage, there
to rest in peace and quiet until the final
day of judgment, when our lord and
Master will call us.’ ” To true Tennes
seeans, can there be aught more sacred
than this last dying request of Andrew
Jackson?—Nashville Union and AmerU
Bob Toombs for Governor.
[Georgia Correspondence Courier-Journal.]
What was first thought os a joke is now
seriously treated. When Toombs was first
mentioned as a candidate for Governor,
no one thought other than it was one of
his erratic speeches to which he is much
given of late. There is a party both in
old and new Georgia for .whom he pos
sesses magnetism. Grave men, however,
shake their heads now when they hear of-
the loss thoughtful speaking of calling up
such material as is found in the composi
tion of this singular and singularly great
man. In certain stages of a nation’s his-
toiy such material is very essential. In
others objectionable to a degree almost
amounting to the odious. When the
. affairs of a nation require the formation
! of a revolution such men as Toombs ore
necessary in firing the popular heart, but
when the revolution bursts it will be de
feated if they are placed in command.
Peter the Hermit and Bowman, Robe-
speirre and Napoleon each had their parts
to play in the great dramas of their times.
But we see what became of Robespierre
when he undertook the government of
France, after ho had formed and accom
plished the revolution; what became of
Napoleon after be became its emperor.
In the organization of the Southern
revolution Mr. Toombs had his part to
play, and he played it well. In its actual
throes he undertook parts which he did
not nnderstond and failed. Called upon
the stage now. his speeches and actions
would be taken from an old drama,
strangely and jarringly mingled with sen
tences from a new, and the one he ought
to play exclusively. The effect upon the
audience would be simply ludicrous. In
one mojnent we would find him demand
ing Confederate battalions into line, and
appealing to the Legislature for arms,
and, failing to' hear any response, he
would mount the rostrum and ring out,
“ Is Sparta dead ?” Iu all, we would find
the splendid intellect clouded by the com
mon demon of America, which has rained
a thousand Tom Marshalls.
A Story About Govebnob Moses.—
The Petersburg (Va.) Index tells a stoiy
about Gov. Moses, of Sonth Carolina,
which indicates that even before the wer
that official waa not a stranger to dis
honest trickery. Moses was married in
1859, and went North on a bridal tour,
passing through Petersburg. On his
way back he lost a trunk containing a
part of his wife’s wearing appareL He
claimed $550 .as compensation for the
trunk, which was paid to him by the
Petersburg Railroad Company. The trunk
was soon after found, aud Mr. Moses,
was requested to take his goods and re
turn the money.. He replied that he had
duplicated the articles lost, and did not
care for the trunk. The company opened
it, and os the contents ' were found to be
worth, about one-fourth the sum paid to
Hoses, they again notified him to return
the $550 and take his articles. Moses
paid no attention to the request until the
war had been going on for some time,
and Confederate paper money had be
come comparatively worthless, while
laces, ribbons, and the other contents of
his trank had gone np greatly in value.
Then he closed with the company’s offer
and regained his trank, paying the $550
in Confederate notes.
cussin', butterberdam ef things ain’t
mixed, an’ de Rippublikin party is gwine
to de devil fast enough.”
One hundred and eight thousand eight
hundred and twenty-four immigrants
arrived in New York from Jane X to Sep
tember 1,1874.
Ireland is on the road to prosperity. It
would seem so, at least, from the follow
ing figures: ’In 18G0 the value of the
Irish crop was $100,000,000. In 18G5’it
was $140,000,000. Iu 1868 it was $160,-
000,000. In 1847 the number of cattle
in the country was 2,GOO.OOO. In 1SG7 it
was 3,700,000. lie total value of the
live stock was, in 1851, $140,000,000. In
I860 it was over- $255*000,000. The ex
ports of linen in 1840 amounted to $10,-
000,000. In 1862 they were worth over
$31,000,000. The receipts of the rail
ways have increased 250 per cent, in
twenty years. Emigration has diminish
ed from 117,229 in 1803 to 72,763 in 1872.
In 1851 there were 39,370 first-class
houses in the kingdom; in .1861 there
were 44,302. Second-class houses in
creased from“202,280 to 333,140; third-
class fell from 588,440 to 58B,49G; the
mud cabins fell from 284,229 to 179,060,
or nearly 100,000. ' The progress con
tinues.
A Texas Astob. — In southwestern
Texas there is a cattle-raiser who has
lived there twenty years. On going
there he picked up a dozen cows, and
branded them. He had no land, but was
the possessor of a wife, two or three
gnns, a few dogs and two or three horses.
He kept watch of his cows, and lived in
a hand-to-mouth way for several years,
subsisting his family by the capture of
gamo and the sale of skins. In May,
1873, he owned 30,000 head of cattle,
duly branded and ranging’over the plains.
He has a family of nine children, five of
whom aro boys. His eldest child is a
girl, nineteen years of age. She can
rope a steer, kill a wolf with a rifle, or
strangle a dog at arm’s length.
In the man’s house is a nail-keg nearly
filled with gold coin, while in the pantry
is a flour barrel almost filled with silver
pieces. "When he sells cattle it is for coin,
which is dumped on the premises. He
wilt not take paper money at any rate,
but is always ready to sell steers for gold
or silver. His boys.are all familiar with
guns, horses, dogs and cattle. In a few
years more they will have literally cart
loads of money, provided robbers do not
make a raid upon them, in which case
man, wife, boys, girls, dogs and shot
guns, the raiders would be apt to get
more bullet-holes than bullion. The
house occupied by this prosperous family
is low, built of logs, and contains three
rooms. The father and mother sleep in
the dining-room, the girls sleep in the
spare room, while the boys sleep in the
addition. .
The foreign steamshship lines running
into New York are somewhat ah-rmed at
the nnprecedented decrease of their busi
ness. The Hamburg line has'withdrawn
several of its steamers, the Bremen line
has followed this example, the Baltic-
Lloyd Company has taken off’ all its ves
sels, and the whole fleet is now lying idle
at Stettin. This company was obliged to
discontinue by an absolute wnnt of busi
ness. But all the companies nre sufferers
to a great extent. None of them carry at
present one-half or one-tliird the usual
number of steerage passengers, while
freights are very light, and competition
has driven rates down so low that little
money can be made. Much of all this
is to be attributed to the general stagna
tion of business, and to the fact that in
formation of the overcrowded condition
of the labor market in this country has
been spread everywhere throughout Eu
rope. The Philadelphia Bulletin claims
that some of the damage has been done
by the European lines running from
Philadelphia and Baltimore, which cany-
heavy freights to and from both cities,
while the American line also brings quan
tities of goods for Western importers who
were once compelled to bring their mer
chandise into New York.
Male prelector (leaning over the banis
ter, with a lamp in his hand)—“If there
are any persons down there who wish to
rob tbc bouse, they will find all the silver
ware and valuables iu the dining room
closet; the key is under the clock on the
mantel. Please shnt the door when you
go out.” Male protector retires and locks
himself in his bed room, with the Calm
sense of hnving done his duty.
By French law to get up a corner in
grain is punishable by fine and imprison
ment; and yet, os Chicago contemptuous
ly remarks, France pretends to call itself
a republic.
